Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomWi Fi was patchy depending on where you were in the property. There are boosters but the walls are thick!
We were staying in Kelso for my son’s wedding at Runningburn Venue nearby. We stayed from Friday though to Monday. The accommodation was ideally situated, just 10 mins drive away from the venue. The main square is at most a minute’s walk away and Kelso itself is a delightful town. (If anyone is looking to book transport in the area, Kenny from Border Cab Co was so accommodating transporting guests to and fro). There is free, long-stay parking close by, and you can pull up outside to drop luggage. The property is spacious and very comfortable, situated over 4 floors. The hosts were most flexible, allowing an earlier check in as there were no guests immediately prior. The lounge area was really comfy and allowed a small pre-wedding gathering to happen. There reading nook proved a popular place to chill! The beds were really comfy and bedding crisp and clean, though the double bedrooms are smaller than the photos suggest. There was plenty of hot water for baths and showers. There was milk in the fridge and a welcome pack of local goodies.

United KingdomLack of parking outside for unloading and loading but we were lucky and did not block the lane. Easy parking within a five minute walk. The three flights of stairs were difficult to negotiate carrying luggage but that only happened twice! Absolutely nothing else to complain about.
Well supplied with everything we needed. Beautifully appointed. And most comfortable

United KingdomNot a problem for us, but lots of stairs for anyone with limited mobility.
We used the Old Seed Store as a weekend base for a family wedding in the Borders. We really appreciated the thoughtful welcome pack when we arrived. The house was warm and welcoming. Our party of 3 couples had plenty of room, we could relax comfortably in the comfortable living room and there was plenty of space in the kitchen/dining room for a leisurely cooked breakfast (good cooking facilities) before we set off for the wedding. Great that hosts provided washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets. Two rooms with ensuite facilities included an excellent shower in each. The house is a short walk from a variety of supermarkets so it was easy to gather supplies on arrival. Thanks for giving us an extra hour to gather ourselves before departure the morning after the wedding.

This was one of the nicest places we have stayed. Immaculate and beautifully furnished. So many personal details made this a real home from home.
